'Limbless Evangelist' Nick Vujicic Drives a Car for the Very First Time (Video)
Nick Vujicic, popular Christian motivational speaker born without limbs, has recently added a new accomplishment to the list of activities he might have otherwise thought impossible — getting behind the wheel of a car for the very first time.
Thanks to several engineers, the 32-year-old married father was able to do what many people otherwise take for granted — drive. The momentous occasion was revealed in the TLC one-hour special, "Man Born Without Limbs."
"Ever since I was a kid, the burning desire in me was to do what everyone else can do," Vujicic said in a promotional clip for "Man Born Without Limbs."

Despite being born with a condition known as tetra-amelia syndrome, Vujicic has consistently shown the world that there is pretty much nothing he can't do, thanks to his fierce determination, faith in God and supportive family and friends.
So in addition to golfing, swimming, surfing, shooting hoops, and playing soccer, Vujicic can now add driving to his list of activities. No wonder he inspires countless people around the world with his story of hope, resilience and faith in God.
"If God can use a man without arms and legs to be His hands and feet, then He will certainly use any willing heart!" Vujicic has been known to say.
Vujicic is founding president and CEO of the nonprofit organization Life Without Limbs and the author of many books, including Unstoppable: The Incredible Power of Faith in Action and Life Without Limits: Inspiration for a Ridiculously Good Life. He and his wife, Kanae Vujicic, share their story in Love Without Limits: A Remarkable Story of True Love Conquering All.
